Random 68 to 70 picture thread

Within 2 weeks of taking delivery of it in February of 1968 because it still has the stripes on the side. The rest were shot at Lebanon Valley Dragway in '68 and '69.

Not only do I still have the car, I also still have that Snap-on tool box (it's currently in the back of my hemi-powered hot rod) and the bottle jack on the ground.

As it looks today. Photo from June 2018

No, my car isn't in that particular picture but I'm the one who shot that picture. My car is out of the picture on the right immediately to the right of the car in the center of the picture,

The Southern New England MoPar Performance Car Club and the local Corvette club conducted a tour from the Springfield, MA area up to Lebanon Valley Dragway that day.

Here's a link to the folder that this picture is in up on flickr. Lebanon Valley Dragway 1968
Here's another Lebanon Valley album. SNEMPCC rented the strip for a Saturday and there's a bunch of B bodies in the group. Southern New England MoPar Performance Car Club There's a couple of other club event sessions in this folder as well.This pic was taken at a club picnic at my house. The gold '67 is parked in the same spot as my GTX was when I shot the photo when it was less than 2 weeks old.

....and here's an album of pictures I shot at the SNEMPCC-sponsored Sox & Martin at Cook Motors in Chicopee, MA. That's my GTX in the second picture dead center in front of the dealership. Mark Worman used some of these (copyrighted) pictures on Graveyard Cars and never acknowledged where he stole them from. Sox & Martin clinic at Cook's Chrysler / Plymouth A few of the shots (662-667) were taken at Bradley International Airport in CT where we all had a tour to drive down there and pick up Sox & Martin when they flew in.

If you hold your mouse over the photo in my post (#184) you should see arrows pop up on either side and you can scroll through the pictures. BTW, while scrolling, the guy in the blue sweater at the car show is me. My girlfriend shot that one with my camera.
